Various organizations in the Cleveland/Akron area have their own events, for all types of bikes and all types of riders! You can find a listing of events on the official Cleveland Bike Month web site at:

Bike To School Challenge
The Bike To School Challenge has been organized by Century Cycles for the past several years at Bay High School and Bay Middle School. In 2011, the program expanded to Rocky River Middle School, and in 2012, it comes to Medina for the first time! The event begins in all three citites on May 7, and ends on May 25 – inspiring over 4,500 students to ride their bikes to school for three weeks to help the environment, improve their health, better their community, and have fun!
